Hey. I'm currently trying my first grow with PE. I grew on alien's substrate--6 pints 3/4 full or so. I used all of em on one 9*13 inch casing. The substrate was 1-2" deep and the casing layer about the same...I realized I put way too much casing material on it after several days of nothing showing through. I ended up scooping most of it off with a spoon (i did so until i actually saw some white..then covered that spot back up). Its finally appearing in the valleys of the casing in a few areas, but growth is still REALLY slow, and it hasn't actually surfaced. I think i may have fucked it by putting too much casing to begin with. But i'm still hoping...I put it in the fruiting chamber (perhaps a little early, but at this point i'm getting anxious). my other grow is doing great, though. Check out the grow log here (both PE and Maza grows were started at same time and cased at same time): http://www.shroomery.org/forums/remlinke...mp;Main=3448981
My experience with PE so far--not great for a first grow. Maza on the other hand... 
Here's a link about the PE strain: http://www.thehawkseye.com/pe/pe.html

the only reason it's called penis envy is because the fruits look like... peni.
I've heard mixed things about this strain.. but cubes are cubes are cubes.

PE was definitely way different from any other cubies I have grown. I only had a couple of PE cakes that fruited, and I only got a few mushies including 1 monster from each. They were the most solid and dense mushies I ever grew and turned completely dark blue after dried. Veils never broke on any of them either so I couldn't get any prints, I dunno what that was about.
I got mine from Sporeworks.

drgonz said: Where did you get your PE print/syringe? A vendor? Because I know they rarely drop spores, and no one on here usually has any prints to trade...
i got it from sporeworks.com. i got lucky: i chose the random 4 syringes for 8.50 each and one of em happened to be PE (the other 3 were: 2 chitwans, 1 maza). but, maybe it wasn't really luck. in the comment section i asked em nicely to send PE if they had it. actually i was like "please send me PENIS ENVY!!!!!! WEEEEEE" 
i am completely out of the syringe...i was lucky enough to BARELY squeeze one drop out of it into karo (and i mean barely--i had to tap it til it came out). I checked on it and i do indeed have myc growin in there. if my grow fails, i'll be using the karo to start anther one. otherwise, i'll be hopin to make some prints.

10cc's of spores...use 1 cc to make a liquid culture. Use that liquid culture to knock up like 10 jars with a cc or two each jar. From there each jar can do 2-5 dozen jars..even at 30 jars per thats still 300 jars. The culture could be used to make 1000 jars each one could then easily make 30 jars leading to 30,000 quarts of substrate from 1cc's of spores. Then you use the remaining 9ccs, one at a time, every 3-6 months to make a new culture when the one you has becomes unviable. Even not doing grain to grain transfers if you do 1000 jars every 3-6 months from a culture per cc of spores that should last you 30-60 months (thats about 5 years). I think in that time you could either get a print, buy a new syringe or just take a clone and toss it into a liquid culture..10cc's of spores is enough to last you for the rest of your life growing that strain without ever getting spores..there are many more ways to handle things.
Good luck.

PE is easily my favorite cube strain. www.TheHawksEye.com also sells PE spores (and has a GREAT PE description... a MUST read). If BULK is not your goal, I HIGHLY suggest this oddly potent strain. Plus, chicks dig it.
2nd flush
ist flush
1st flush, heavy overlay
Dicks on plate, with a lighter... still life.

Is penis envy really the bomb trip of the cubes? Does anyone else support this?

Z's are. About 5 dozen people who have tried all 10 strains I've grown have supported this .

All the others are about the same. Brazils I've heard alot about them being weak though..the trip doesnt hit you as hard IMO either but I've only tried them twice. Z's stood out to people (including myself) but other then that they're just all good. Tampanensis were by far the best but not cubies and were difficult to fruit and still have been shit yeilds. This is trip wise. Yeild is what I usually go by. Amazons, Malabars, OI's and Z's have been incredible for yeilds. Amazons in the lead the other three just about tied. Brazils can produce huge flushes but they produce SOOOO many pins that often it causes hundreds of aborts per casing per flush.

Very interesting, definitely going to get my hands on some Z spores. Does anyone else support the Z strain as such?

Unfortunately no. My friend, Don Quixote, grew some and he got spores! But get this... the WHOLE flush was STERILE so he picked them all, only to discover later that THE ONE SHROOM HE DIDN'T CHECK THOROUGHLY actually was dropping spores. It was DRY before this mistake was discovered ... nothing else printed. The print would have come from the second flush. Ironically, those photos are of Don's grow! Sterile PE's have white/light tan gills... spores are purple. If you have learned patience, PE are a joy. They like some TLC but they reward you. Grow on istinct with PE, they whisper what they need. If you listen... A joy to grow! My favorite cube by far! I mean, they are dicks that get smaller when you dry them. They are dicks, that get hard, when they shrink! COME ON! The commedy writes itself. Don used THE spores, but Sporeworks has the same source as THE for their PE spores. Good luck

I havnt tried Maza's..Brazils, Z's, Malabars, OI, Tamps, Hawaiian, Transki, Cambodian, Golden Teacher and Amazons. I do have some Maza's and 6 other strains I still havnt had time to try. All had their own unique looks and produced different yeilds but none really stood out other then what I mentioned...
I should stop with all the post theiving though..this is about PE..
